Lifestyle and Cancer
 
New reviews and research suggest that excess weight coupled with poor diet is the main cause of cancer. Almost 1/3rd of eight odd million cancer deaths a year around the world are as a result of lifestyle and environmental factors. Good habits may not rectify bad genes but they can counter their effects.

The main risk factors that account for more than 35% of cancer deaths are Smoking, no physical activity, alcohol, diets void of fruits and vegetables, obesity, alcohol, pollution, unsafe sex and reused needles.

Smoking, alcohol abuse and diet that contains too few or no fruits and vegetables are the front running and controllable risks for about a dozen kinds of cancers.

The rate of cancer deaths is more in developed countries despite having lesser population. The reasons for this are attributed to use of alcohol in abundance, smoking and obesity, mostly male issues. Females are nevertheless not far behind, and are catching up.

Smoking is known to cause lung cancer for donkey's ears. Despite the statutory warnings on the packs, people at large seem to carry on with the habit, being fully aware of the consequences. Changing their lifestyle to reduce risk is a very important decision they should make especially when the perspective turns to their family and their support. Losing that excess weight and a little exercise can keep cancer at bay. Moreover, this can greatly help in fighting other diseases and improves the quality of life. Obesity has also been associated with depression for a long time. Developing a positive attitude will greatly benefit a person physically and psychologically. Beer and wine have proven to help protect the heart in moderate quantities but no proven benefits are observed against cancer. But, where does the need to protect the heart arise from, once you have that positive attitude and take things as they come one at a time, there is not reason why alcohol consumption on a regular basis cannot be avoided.

Changing your lifestyle, considering the above suggestions would go a great way in reducing the risk of cancer. Why suffer knowingly? The symptoms become evident much before the disease itself. Make sure you take the right steps in the positive direction. Cancer research is a continuous ongoing process, please keep yourself upto date.
